Harry Potter and the

Recessive Allele

How Are Wizards Made?

• Being a wizard or a muggle is all decided by genetics

• All humans including wizards receive one allele from each parent

How Are Wizards Made?

• The allele for wizarding ability is

• Wizards have the alleles mm

How Are Wizards Made?

• The allele for muggleness is M

• Muggles have the alleles Mm or

• M is dominant to m so you can only be a wizard if you have no M allele

The Malfoys

Lucius Malfoy (mm)

Narcissa Malfoy (mm)

Draco Malfoy( )

The Malfoys are a ‘pure blood’ family

All their ancestors are wizards so they must have the alleles mm

Lily Potter (mm)

James Potter (mm)

Harry Potter (WW)

Both Harry’s parents had magical ability so they must both have been mm

They passed these alleles on to Harry

The Potters

The Weasleys are pure blood wizards so they all have the alleles mm

Page 8: Harry Potter and the Recessive Allele How Are Wizards Made ?

Hermione is a powerful witch so she must be mm

Both her parents are muggles so they must be Mm so they can give her a m allele each

Mm Mm

Tom Riddle is a ‘half blood’.

His mother was a witch (mm) and his father was a muggle

His father must have had the alleles Mm so he could give him the other m allele

mm Mm

Page 10: Harry Potter and the Recessive Allele How Are Wizards Made ?

Filch is a ‘squib’

Both his parents are mm so he should be too because he can’t get an M allele from either parent but he can’t do any magic

This means he has a mutation so his wizarding powers don’t work or the man he thinks is his father isn’t really and his mother had an affair with a muggle!

The Granger’s children have a one in four chance of getting m alleles from both parents and having magical ability

They also have a one in four chance of getting M alleles from both parents and being a muggle

They could also get only one m from their mother or father and still be a muggle
